Stress Center Peer Support

Wow, I see alot of similarities between your symptoms and mine. I also fear the feelings of anxiety. Not so much the physical, just the emotional. My husband was also my safe person, but that has passed. For a while, I didn't want him to go anywhere and hated when he even had to go to work. The prog...

There are two songs that I've found inspirational to listen to if I'm having a bad day. Take a listen and hopefully they will help ease a bad day for you...

"Stand back up" by Sugarland and "One day you will" by Lady Antebellum

I have been on cymbalta for about two years for anxiety/panic. I've still had anxiety and a few panic attacks (Although, the attacking anxiety program has really helped me to float through them) I'm thinking that I might as well get off of them and avoid the side effects since they don't seem to be ...

Hey, guys! It's been a while since I've posted. I've been doing all right with a few hard times around my monthly. Anyway, my cleaning business has basically dropped off and I've had to start hunting for a "real" job. That brought some anxiety back. I've been trying to float through it as suggested ...

Hi everyone. I'm having a thought problem that I'm hoping you guys can help with. My period of high anxiety which feels like constant anxious thoughts running through my head, started a few months ago after a very stressful winter. I was stressed for a while, but not feeling emotionally bad about it...

Thanks you guys. Lola, I'm sorry you have this problem with me. Catherine, thanks for your words. You said "you get past all the negative thoughts and obsessive thought you're feeling." Did you mean that this is a "normal" phase that I'll go through during the healing process? If so, that's good to ...

Much too much!!! I've found since I've been on the program, I am totally obsessing about my thoughts. I'm just finishing up week two and these past two days have been really bad. It's like my anxiety is the only thing I can think about. That and my fear of developing depression. I've tried to distra...

Well, I had to go to the doctor today. Last year I had a problem with mrsa and it's come back again. It's actually in my armpit :( The doctor had to remove them and pack it. Well, they used a different numbing agent on me this time. I normally don't have any problem with needles or anything, so afte...

I've noticed since starting the program, I am coming up with new anxiety symptoms. I actually was nervous about going into town by myself to run errands today. That one is new for me. Maybe I'm an anxiety hypochondriac? Now, I worry about coming up with new problems that I hear on the cd's and read ...

Hi! I'm on week two right now and have some questions. I've been through panic attacks off and on for years. Many years ago, I actually watched Lucinda's commercial and went through therapy and was able to fully realize that my physical symptoms were caused by anxiety and not some sort of disease. I...
